Silicic :: Silicic (a.) Pertaining to, derived from, or resembling, silica; specifically, designating compounds of silicon; as, silicic acid..

Metasilicic :: Metasilicic (a.) Designating an acid derived from silicic acid by the removal of water; of or pertaining to such an acid.

Fluosilicate :: Fluosilicate (n.) A double fluoride of silicon and some other (usually basic) element or radical, regarded as a salt of fluosilicic acid; -- called also silicofluoride..

Borosilicate :: Borosilicate (n.) A double salt of boric and silicic acids, as in the natural minerals tourmaline, datolite, etc..

Fluosilicic :: Fluosilicic (a.) Composed of, or derived from, silicon and fluorine..

Silicicalcareous :: Silicicalcareous (a.) Consisting of silica and calcareous matter.

Tetrabasic :: Tetrabasic (a.) Capable of neutralizing four molecules of a monacid base; having four hydrogen atoms capable of replacement by bases; quadribasic; -- said of certain acids; thus, normal silicic acid, Si(OH)4, is a tetrabasic acid..
